Abstract

In the method for aspirating and drying the cups of coated microtitration plates, a cannula having an internal diameter of 0.5 to 3 mm is lowered at a lowering rate of 0.5 to 20 mm/s into the cup, which is emptied via the cannula at an aspiration rate of 50 to 2500 l/h. The cannula is stopped 0.05 to 3 mm above the cup bottom. <IMAGE>
